From last month's story:
Postponement will mean controversial votes on the standards covering history, government, geography and economics will occur after the March primaries. Four of the board members, who are elected, are fighting challenges in their own parties...
Member Mary Helen Berlanga, D-Corpus Christi, was not happy after colleagues rejected her amendment that would have exposed students to the historic significance of the Mexican American Legal Defense and Educational Fund, League of United Latin American Citizens, GI Forum and Raza Unida...Berlanga accused some of her Republican colleagues of being narrow-minded.
David Bradley, R-Beaumont, a leader of the board's seven social conservative members, considered Berlang's accusation sour grapes.
“If Ms. Berlanga, whose only criteria is skin color, had the votes, she would name us ‘the Hispanic Education Agency,'” Bradley said.
lol...I like that Beaumont guy
one of my boys has a teacher who is a real crusader....dumpy white chick married to an activist native american/indian/part black/whatever fruitbat and she too carries the torch with activist hubby
her car is covered in Obama and other crap
my boy keeps her on edge.....he gave her fits over why they can’t say Christmas in school but they refer to the bomber as Christmas Day bomber
it’s nuts, you have to keep your kids prepared to deal with it
but most teachers here are not like her...we got unlucky on that one
what scares me is how many kids and lazy parents just let the teachers run their pieholes without challenging them
this boy is almost 10 btw
